Hello to all wargamers, I added a new resource regarding three battles on the front of the Dalmatian islands.
Every suggestion is welcome.
Have a good fun.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Designers notes:
With these three scenarios I wanted to recreate the most significant clashes of this secondary and little known war front.
1) Korcula (historical scenario) Operation Herbstgewitter II - One of the most effective operations of the Wehrmacht against Tito's partisans.
2) Vis (hypothetical scenario) Freischutz-II Operation - Invasion of Lissa executed simultaneously with the allied raid on Solta (Operation Detained).
3) Brac (hypothetical scenario) Operations Eisbär-Kranich - Evacuation anticipated of the island of Brac and in correspondence with a allied raid (Operation FLOUNCED).
Last but not least, two words on the image (.sam) chosen for the presentation of the scenario: given that in this operational theater there were female combat units, a small recognition for all women who, on one side and the other in WWII, lost life for their ideals (whether they were right or wrong).
Good luck commanders!
